Answer 2

Answer:

      The bond forming capacity of an atom is its: -

      a) valency

Explanation:

• The valency of an atom refers to its ability to combine. The valency of an element describes how many bonds an atom can make  or the bond forming capacity of an atom as part of a compound.

• We all understand how an atom's electrons are grouped in orbitals and shells. The electrons in the atom's outermost orbit are known as valence electrons.

• According to the Bohr-bury system, the outermost shell can hold up to 8 electrons. When the outermost shell is fully filled, very little chemical activity is seen.
• Noble gases are the least reactive because their outermost shell is entirely filled. The capacity of other elements to achieve the noble gas configuration determines how reactive they are.
